Agrochemical composition for pest control and pest control method

Abstract

An agrochemical composition comprising a propylene glycol fatty acid monoester and fenbutatin oxide in a proportion of 1:150 to 150:1 in terms of a mass ratio (propylene glycol fatty acid monoester:fenbutatin oxide) shows an excellent control effect on pests, hyposensitive mites having reduced sensitivity to chemicals, eggs of mites, and pests other than mites in all stages of growth, even when the composition is applied in a small amount. A pest control method comprising applying the propylene glycol fatty acid monoester and fenbutatin oxide in a proportion of 1:150 to 150:1 in terms of a mass ratio (propylene glycol fatty acid monoester:fenbutatin oxide) to pests or a habitat of the pests also shows an excellent control effect.
